The salary of college majors, the highest preschool education is low in petroleum (Alberta Times) There are hundreds of majors in American universities, and some majors symbolize golden jobs, but some make it difficult to find a job. According to a report, the highest-paying university majors are petroleum engineering and pharmaceuticals; the lowest-paying majors are consulting and early childhood education. The U.S. Department of State's Bureau of International Information (IIP) pointed out in the blog "American Reference" that the Center for Education and the Workforce at Georgetown University used Census Bureau data to conduct research and analysis on the post-graduation salaries of graduates in 171 different majors and found that the income difference between different majors is as high as 4 times. The Georgetown University report pointed out that the 10 highest-paying majors in the United States, based on median income, are: petroleum engineering (annual salary $120,000); pharmacy, pharmaceutical sciences and management ($105,000); mathematics and computer science ($98,000); aerospace engineering ($87,000); chemical engineering ($86,000); electrical engineering ($85,000); shipbuilding and ocean engineering ($82,000) Mechanical Engineering (USD 80,000); Metallurgical Engineering (USD 80,000); Mining and Mineral Engineering (USD 80,000). The 10 lowest-paying majors are: Counseling and Psychology ($29,000 annual salary); Early Childhood Education ($36,000); Theology and Religion ($38,000); Human Services and Community Organization ($38,000); Social Work ($39,000); Theater and Performing Arts Arts ($40,000); Workshop Arts ($40,000); Interpersonal Disorders and Services ($40,000); Visual and Performing Arts ($40,000); Primary Health and Medical Programs ($40,000). Census Bureau data also found that among various college majors, students majoring in actuarial science, pharmacology, educational administration, student counseling, geology and geophysical engineering, astronomy and astrophysics, teacher education, agricultural economics, medical technology, atmospheric science and meteorology are the easiest to find a job and have the highest employment rate after graduation. According to research from Georgetown University's Center on Education and the Workforce, architecture graduates have the hardest time finding work, with unemployment rates as high as 13.9% among graduates aged 22 to 26. Other majors with relatively high unemployment rates include: arts (11.1%), humanities (9.4%), etc. Overall, the unemployment rate for college graduates is much lower than that of those without a college degree.
